My husband and I were on a tour of Turkey. Because we were unsatisfied, we left mid way. This left us to find to a hotel last minute. Unfortunately the Four Seasons Properties were not available for most of our stay, so we chose the W. I'm in my 20s and this property is a little too hip for me.... more

LOVED the outstanding breakfast included at Spice Market Restaurant ... concierge was truly helpful. Location is a bit off the beaten track for touristy attractions. Shower configuration is odd. Room very comfortable except for all the W goodies for sale, which made it cluttered. more

My husband and I recently stayed at the W Istanbul. What a fantastic hotel! The staff is beyond friendly, the decor is exquisite, and the room was simply marvelous. The hotel is in a great location away from the touristy area of Sultan Ahmet. Every morning, we walked to the Tram station, which is 15 mintues away, and took the... more

If you like the look and feel of W Hotels, this is a very nice one. For me, it is too over-the-top modern, at the expense of being comfortable. We had the standard room. It was nice and had many interesting, modern details. However, it didn't have a separate bathroom (the shower was behind a door that opened directly into... more

I stayed in this hotel for one night and I was very pleasantly suprised for trendy and beautiful it looked. Even thought I stayed there for free (using my SPG points) I was still given a free upgrade to Studio Suite, which was very nice of the reception staff. The room/suite was absolutely gorgeous and I felt like I just... more

We stayed at the W Istanbul and were very impressed by several things: The helpful staff; my wife's bag was lost by the airline, and was not supposed to be delivered for 24hr+. W staff went to the airport and retrieved our bag before we went to bed! Awesome. The rooms; beautiful, very luxurious. The beds; oh my god, the... more

Unbelievably terrible experience -- from check-in, to the room, to the service -- absolutely awful hotel. There is no view, small bathroom, no tub, internet did not work, concierge was not available, etc etc etc. Shockingly bad experience here. I have stayed in 5-star hotels from London to NY to Tokyo to Rio to the Maldives -- I would say... more

Very nice W Hotel. Service was A+ regarding another comment on this board being far away from the sights, I would somewhat disagree. Just hop on the lite-rail which is a 10minute walk away and it takes you anywhere inon the European side that you would want to go OR walk up the hill into the fashion district. If you... more

I generally love W hotels, so I had high hopes for the new W in Istanbul. As expected, the bed was incredible (always great in the Ws and Westins), the decor modern and edgy. The service was great - the concierge went out of his way to help us multiple times; the valets were fabulous at getting us taxis and... more
